Proposal for an Organic Web, The missing link between the Web and the Semantic Web, Part 1

Abstract: A huge amount of information is produced in digital form. The Semantic Web stems from the realisation that dealing efficiently with this production requires getting better at interlinking digital informational resources together. Its focus is on linking data. Linking data isn't enough. We need to provide infrastructural support for linking all sorts of informational resources including resources whose understanding and fine interlinking requires domain-specific human expertise. At times when many problems scale to planetary dimensions, it is essential to scale coordination of information processing and information production, without giving up on expertise and depth of analysis, nor forcing languages and formalisms onto thinkers, decision-makers and innovators that are only suitable to some forms of intelligence. This article makes a proposal in this direction and in line with the idea of interlinking championed by the Semantic Web.
